About this study

Official title: Concurrent Nab--paclitaxel/Carboplatin and Thoracic Radiotherapy in Inoperable Stage III Squamous Cell Lung Cancer

Nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin showed better treatment response compared with cremophor-based paclitaxel and carboplatin as first-line therapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer, especially for squamous cell cancer. This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel, carboplatin and concurrent radiotherapy in patients with local advanced inoperable squamous cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study was conducted to explore the efficacy and safety of concurrent concurrent nab-paclitaxel, carboplatin and thoracic radiotherapy in inoperable local advanced squamous cell lung cancer. Patients will be given nab-paclitaxel weekly at a dose of 40mg/m2, in combination with carboplatin (AUC 2) weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Thoracic radiation was administered at a dose of 60-66 Gy/30-33 fractions, both 3 dimensional conformal and intensity modulated radiation therapy are allowed.

Being tested
Nab-paclitaxel, Carboplatin, Thoracic radiation therapy
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, Carcinoma, Squamous Cell

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. PFS (progression-free survival )

    PFS is defined as time from the start of treatment to death, progression of disease, or the last follow-up data, whichever comes first. Progression is evaluated using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. PFS will be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: 5 years from patient enrollment

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. ORR (Overall Response Rate )

    The number of participants that achieve either a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR). Response is evaluated using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.

    Measured: one month after the end of all treatment

  2. LCR (Local Control Rate)

    The number of participants that achieve either a complete response (CR) , a partial response (PR) or stable disease(SD).

    Measured: one month after the end of all treatment

  3. OS (Overall survival)

    Overall survival is defined as time from the start of treatment until death. Overall survival will be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: 5 years from patient enrollment

  4. Number of participants with adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    The adverse events(AE) is evaluated by National Cancer Institute- Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(NCI -CTCAE) 4.02.

    Measured: 5 years from patient enrollment

  5. Patient quality of life (QOL)

    Measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lung (FACT-L).The total range of scores:0-144,and higher values represent a better outcome.

    Measured: 5 years from patient enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Nab-paclitaxel, Carboplatin and Thoracic radiation therapy in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung and Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by Wuhan University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The study was halted because enrollment was too slow). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS (progression-free survival ) (time frame: 5 years from patient enrollment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Apr 2023.
